The roundtable highlighted both the scale of philanthropic commitment and the persistent challenges of fragmentation and lack of collaboration.

However, the event was marked by a surge of energy and a call to collective action, with participants emphasizing the need for bolder collaboration, evidence-based policy advocacy, and centering the voices of those most affected by poverty.

The event was anchored by the National Philanthropy Survey on Ending Poverty, which drew responses from over 100 national and place-based funders, representing at least $1 billion in annual grantmaking devoted to anti-poverty efforts.

The roundtable, shaped by survey findings, featured panels on federal policy solutions, systemic barriers, and the future role of philanthropy in ending poverty in America.

Ending Poverty in America: A Virtual National Roundtable was held (via Zoom) on June 4, 2025, and convened nearly 200 leaders from philanthropy, research, and advocacy across 40 states to address the urgent question: not whether, but how to end poverty in America together.
